Products

Oribe

Oribe Hair Care was founded by renowned editorial and celebrity hairstylist Oribe Canales with the goal of creating a new kind of hair company, one that was designed with the most talented salon professionals and the most discriminating customers in mind. When developing the line, we didn’t want to compromise on any detail. We leveraged skin care technology and natural actives to deliver high-performance, treatment-based products—all while never forgetting that healthy hair is the underpinning for sexy, glamorous styling. Each product has been tested at length on set, backstage and in the salon to ensure that it delivers results, leaving us with a best-in-class collection that truly meets the needs of the hair-obsessed.

R+Co

R+Co is a collective of some of the most forward-thinking, rule-bending hairstylists in the business. We advocate for stylists—and their clients—to find the point of view and style that best matches their own. All of our products are treatment-oriented, with the health of the hair and scalp always top-of-mind. We use unique ingredients and complexes to make sure that each product delivers true benefits. And everything is formulated without parabens, sulfates (SLS or SLES), mineral oil and petrolatum. They are all vegetarian, cruelty-free, gluten-free and color-safe. R+Co is about an experience. The packaging and fragrances were designed to enhance that experience and evoke a feeling, place, style or attitude. You’ll know just by looking at a bottle or tube what a product is meant to do, and the subtle yet sophisticated fragrances—meant for both men and women—are as individual as the members of our collective. We work to reduce the amount of physical material used in our packaging by eliminating unnecessary components. A large majority of the retail packaging can be recycled; check with your local recycling center.

Dates & Events

Hair Models

Every Thursday morning at ORO from 10AM to 12pm, we conduct training workshops taught by highly experienced educators and we need hair models for the apprentices to refine and develop their craft.

This means you only have to pay a small fee to receive an amazing cut/color service overseen by our educators every step of the way. This is a great way apprentices can expand their knowledge to become highly trained creative professionals.

During your visit you will receive a full consultation, styling suggestions and product recommendations to create a salon perfect look at home. Services are performed in a teaching environment, so your cut/color will take approximately twice as long as a regular appointment. Please allow for extra time.

We believe the only path to a rewarding career as a successful stylist is through continuous advanced education in the industry.

We are currently looking for all haircut models; from long layers to above the shoulders, lobs, pixie's or shorter. Also color models of all kinds, aside from full color corrections.

Rates:
Haircut Model $20
Color/Highlight Model $30

Please fill out and submit our model form and we will get back to you shortly!
